Another Zoo Day :)

Good Friday fun! We usually head to Jackson on Good Friday. This year things are a little different. Mark's cousin is in from AZ and my parent's are leaving for FL on Easter so we had to change things up a bit. Since we are staying in St. Louis until Saturday night we planned a fun day with family! We met Wyatt's cousins at the zoo. We love that place...best part is that it's FREE! We are members so we also get quite a few perks each time we go. This is already our 4th time this year! There were LOTS of people there today but it didn't seem too crowded though. (parking lot was a bit deceiving)

Wyatt was great and LOVES being with his cousins so much. When he hangs out with them I notice how big he really looks. They are so sweet and patient with him. ~LOVE~ Before we left for lunch we tried to snap a few photos...

After the zoo we headed to "The Boat House." It's such a fun place to eat. Wyatt is HUGE into ducks right now and they were everywhere! While we waited to be seated he sat on the edge and dangled his feet while calling for the "du du du..."

It was right at nap time but thank goodness he wasn't terrible. Ha! Sloane was great too! She enjoyed her first trip to the zoo...how do I know? She told me....;)

We are taking our family vacation to Saint Louis in just a few weeks and are planning to visit the zoo - any tips on where to park? OR great resturants to check ou while we are there (with kids agains 2 and 3!) When we were trying to pick a place to go on vacation - I happened to read a post you did on the Zoo and that is what actually made us start looking at the Saint Louis area - so thank you!
